I saw Allen at Turtle Dragon a few years ago and he resolved my low back pain with acupuncture. He is kind compassionate, knowledgeable and listens carefully to his patients. I am back again October 2018 with other issues. I find the office and people in the office very pleasant and well informed. Allen is very caring and compassionate. He listens carefully and proceeds with the procedures offering his insights. I recommend Turtle Dragon and look forward to my second appointment this month tomorrow.

I've been healing at Turtle Dragon for about 6 years now. This is the most profound acupuncture I've ever received. I can honestly say that I feel better every time I am treated here. I can not recommend this place enough.

I receive acupuncture here every other week from Zach who is an excellent practitioner. Regularly tending to my mind body spirit connection here has assisted me tremendously in coping effectively with stress, thus helping me protect my long-term recovery of 11 years from addiction, which is precious to me.
